No way, I think battle bots is way cool. I hope to one day help build one myself. Just because they don't have the same goals as FIRST does, and just because the entire idea behind it is different doesn't make it a bad thing. I would like to do it just for the challenge of building a really cool, competitive robot. As for seeing your hard work get destroyed, well these robots that are built are used in many competitions and just like a pit crew of a racing team, you have to repair and modify your robot after competitions. It's a real engineering challege, and I just think it looks like a lot of fun. Plus I love the idea of being able to use pretty much whatever you want on your bot. . . I think that makes the potential for diversity almost endless. I would never give up FIRST for it, but I'd really like to give it a try one of these years.

Justin
